still raging everywhere, and the smoke is dense.
No casualties are reported, but thousands of dol

on the peninsula to-day, and repetition of the
awful Peshtigo fire is feared. Fires appear to be
raging everywhere The Italians at camp No. g.

Particulars of their heroic sight cannot be learned

At noon to-day fires were approaching the
Webster mine, and six sawmllls at various
places in imminent danger. At Neeaunee.
Ishpemng and Michigamme the smoke is suffo-

wood and pine timber have been destroyed. No
fatalities are reported, though when definite

fire. The fires are within two miles OF Ishpe-
